7.2 Removal
INFORMATION
Redness of the skin after removing the orthosis is not unusual, and should go away within 2
hours.
Prerequisite: The child is in a stable position with no interfering objects or items near the
>
head.
1) Open the elastic band of the closure.
2) Carefully pull the orthosis apart at the closure.
3) Take the orthosis off the child's head.
TIP: Gently massage the child's head with your fingertips after removing the orthosis in order
to promote self-perception.
4) Remove the padding from the orthosis and clean it (see page 19). Insert the replacement pad­
ding into the orthosis.
5) Fasten the orthosis closure.

4) Align the orthosis and place it onto the
child's head (see fig. 3).
5) Check the fit of the orthosis:
→ The arrowhead on the front should
form a vertical line with the middle of
the nose.
→ The ears should fit uncovered in the
openings in the orthosis.
→ The orthosis must not cover the child's
eyes.
→ The orthosis can be turned side to side
by max. 1 cm.
→ The padding should project beyond the
edge of the orthosis all around and
protect the skin against contact with
the plastic.
6) If the orthosis fits correctly: Hold the
orthosis carefully so it cannot shift and
fasten the closure. A gap in the closure is
normal and no cause for concern.
7) Face the flap of the elastic band up and
verify that the elastic band fits properly in
the guide of the closure.
8) CAUTION! To avoid injuries, always
open the closure before positioning the
orthosis.
If the orthosis does not fit correctly or
has shifted: Repeat the previous steps.
